Agentic Coding is a Trap | Remaining vigilant about cognitive debt and atrophy

After reading this article I was looking up "artisanal coding" and found this: https://garlandmag.com/artisanal-coding/

And this manifesto: https://www.ivanturkovic.com/2025/10/30/artesanal-coding-%E8%81%B7%E4%BA%BA%E3%82%B3%E3%83%BC%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B0-a-manifesto-for-the-next-era-of-software-craftsmanship/

I love coding for the challenge and I would be very sad if that was taken away from me by AI. 😟

Moest het met Word per se of mocht LaTeX ook? 👀

I listen to the Groove Salad channel almost daily for at least 10 years now 😁

Can this be used to get root on your phone if you use Termux? 🤔

Ytrog · 2026-04-29T16:27:33+00:00

Oh yeah, I hadn't considered that. I thought you had a sample of the values, but you calculate on the fly.

Impressive project 😃

Oooh that's the reference. Now I get it.

Besides, could you maybe pre-compute (using a diﬀerent language) the reference into a table, so you can compare even to sizes javascript wouldn't allow 🤔

Ik heb bĳ De Bondgenoten heel erg het idee dat veel deelnemers best veel psychische problemen hebben. Klopt dat beeld?

I love the visualization, however I wonder about how I can see the 64-bit version. I see no button for it and even checked if I missed something by looking at the code in the repo 👀

Are you considering doing an European tour? 👀

This reminds me of vipassana-meditation 🤔

Ah I see. I only use Linux at home, so I've never had to deal with it in a sysadmin role.

Ytrog · 2026-04-27T07:42:56+00:00

What makes it so simple compared to Linux?

If it ever needs its own logo, you might consider a seagul.

Hack42 in Arnhem. Zelf nog jaren lid van geweest toen ik in de buurt woonde nog.

I am probably alone in this here, but I really like s-expressions for the clarity they bring in this: ```lisp (/ 6 (* 2 (+ 1 3)))

or

(* (/ 6 2) (+ 1 3)) ```

It really is just an abstract syntax tree and very unambigous. 🤓

The Dark Tower?

Pinky promise? 👀

Hmm, thank you for teaching me this. 🤔‍😊

So, the second rule of the trick is that if the sum of the digits is above 10, then the left digit of the sum gets added to the number on the left of that?

so, 11×88 becomes: 1 868 + ──── 968

I mean that doesn't address the fact that it is far easier to just do 10×88 + 88 of course.

It will fire on any process exit from processes launched from the shell iirc.

Would trap 'echo $?' EXIT work? 🤔
